Chapter 86 Winter Vacation
The young lady is a top student in the No. 1 Middle School in the city. Wang Silan has asked around and found out that for students in this class, it will be no problem for them to get into a college, let alone a bachelor's degree!
Even if self-employed individuals are making money, in people's minds the best job is still the one with a stable job.
At a time when college students are guaranteed jobs, it is very prestigious to talk about this!
At the same time, people dare not underestimate Wang Silan and his wife. Their son is attending college in Beijing and their daughter is in a top class. Anyone who wants to start their business or is concerned about their business must think carefully about it!
Things may change over time. If you bully these old couple now, when their sons and daughters learn how to do it, it may not be clear who will bully whom!
Sister Han felt a little jealous, but she had to continue talking: "Oh, that's really promising! I still have some stuff to pack, Sister Lan, let's talk later."
Wang Silan naturally wouldn't try to persuade him to stay: "Okay, let's chat when we're free!"
Before she finished her words, customers started to come into the store. Wang Silan put down her half-eaten meal and started to greet them: "Miss, what do you want to buy?"
“What kind of stickers are there?”
Wang Silan recognized the girl who had asked her to bring stickers before, and quickly pulled out a few stickers that had been prepared from under the counter.
"Girl, the Legend of the Condor Heroes stickers you mentioned last time, as well as a few other celebrity stickers you wanted, are all here. I've saved them for you!"
This is the good thing about Wang Silan's business. Both she and her husband have strong memories. They remember everything that happened and can leave an impression on people who have met them once or twice.
The four children born also inherited this advantage, so it was not in vain.
The girl was particularly happy to see that Wang Silan still remembered her. She glanced at the brand new and smooth stickers and took out her money without hesitation: "Then I'll take them all!"
"Okay! I'll install it for you!"
Wang Silan also carefully put straw paper on both sides of the sticker to prevent it from getting dirty on the road. This thoughtful move naturally caught the girl's attention.
"Aunt, you are so thoughtful. I will introduce our classmates to you when I get back!"
This is what business people love to hear the most. They smiled even happier after hearing this: "Thank you, young lady! I'll give you a discount next time you come."
The shop started to work again before lunch was over. Wang Silan had already put the half-eaten meal aside. She was so happy to collect money!!
During these days, Tianwang Silan didn't feel hungry or tired at all. Except for sleeping, his spirit was always in an excited state.
Hang Renshan felt sorry for his wife, so he covered the rice in a cotton bag. While collecting the money, he pulled Wang Silan back and squeezed forward to collect the money himself.
He also reminded Wang Silan: "Eat your meal first, I'm still here."
Doing business requires perseverance. If you get sick from exhaustion, there is really no one to replace you. Wang Silan saw that there were not many people at noon, so she lowered her head and hurried to eat.
Time quickly came to the end of the semester. During this period, Hang Jingshu had no time to think about anything else except studying.
Teacher Cai keeps a close eye on the students every day, hoping that they can do well in the exams and go home to have a good New Year.
In 1986, the Spring Festival was on February 20th. It is now the end of January, and the school holiday schedule states that we will be on holiday on January 31st and go back to school on February 26th.
On paper, there are more than 20 days of holiday, but the reality is very chilling.
Teacher Cai said in class: "You are already in your third year of high school and you still want a winter break? It would be great if we don't let you go until New Year's Eve!"
Although the classmates were helpless, they did not complain.
The teacher gives you free tutoring during the holidays, do you still dare to be picky?
If you don’t take your own future seriously, no one else will have time to care about you!
You don’t have to go if you don’t want to. You won’t be able to get into university anyway, and you’ll have plenty of time to rest in the future!
Just like this, Hang Jingshu continued to indulge in the sea of questions and couldn't extricate himself, Zhou Xiaoli had been snoring for a long time, and I still wanted to go out and play!
Hang Jingshu smiled foolishly when he heard this. Play? ?
What is that?!
It’s more fun to do two more questions~
Because it was a make-up class, school ended even earlier in the afternoon. Hang Jingshu pushed his bicycle out, still thinking about the problem his math teacher had taught him.
The branches of trees in the north are bare in winter. Hang Jingshu walked out while thinking, but he saw a very familiar figure at the school gate.
He was tall and thin, with straight shoulders and back, like a standing poplar in its prime. He looked at himself with a smile on his face and gentle eyes.
Hang Jingshu came back to his senses instantly, and all thoughts about exercises and the like flew out of his mind.
Hang Jingshu excitedly held the bicycle in place, flew over and held the man's arm with both hands, and shouted in a loud voice: "Brother! Why did you come here to pick me up!"
Hang Chenggang helped his sister, who was half-fallen over, steady herself, and took the schoolbag from her hand, smiling: "I just wanted to come and see our top student."
The brother and sister hadn't seen each other for a long time, and Hang Jingshu felt that he had a lot to say to Hang Chenggang.
"Brother, have you ever been to my parents' store?"
Hang Chenggang looked at his little sister with satisfaction and praised her happily, "Of course I have been there. Our little sister is really capable. She can do such a big business with our parents."
The brother and sister talked as they walked, and only stopped when they reached the gate of the compound. They were just busy chatting, and only after they stopped did Hang Jingshu have time to take a closer look at his third brother.
He was thinner than when he was at home, but looked much stronger.
The brother and sister's skin is now gradually turning white, no longer looking as dark as before.
Compared to his third brother who is in college, Hang Chenggang now looks much more mature.
Especially those eyes, which no longer contained the confusion and sorrow of a lifetime, but were now brighter and showed a spirit of vigor and vitality that surpassed that of his peers.
This is the path that the third brother should take!
"Brother, you go back first. I will go back after the school is on holiday in two days." Although he was reluctant, he still had to do what he had to do. Hang Jingshu had to work until February 28 before he could go home.
The brother and sister exchanged letters frequently, and Hang Chenggang naturally would not interfere with his sister's decision without authorization. He handed the schoolbag to his sister and whispered: "Although studying is important, your body is your own. Don't ruin it in the next six months!"
Hang Jingshu naturally knew that his third brother was worried about him, so he agreed straightforwardly: "Don't worry! I'll make you something delicious when I get home!"
As the New Year approaches, every household starts shopping. No matter how poor the family is, they have to buy some meat to satisfy their hunger during the New Year.
People buy vegetables and meat, buy cloth and wax, and if there are children at home, they also have to buy firecrackers and candies, fry meatballs and glutinous rice balls, fry spring rolls and prepare meat bowls. Every household is busy.
The New Year should be celebrated with joy and happiness.
In previous years, Wang Silan would host the sacrificial offering on the 24th day of the 11th lunar month. This year is no different, but the location has been changed to a house in the city.
There is an old saying: Officials offer sacrifices three times, civilians offer sacrifices four times, turtles offer sacrifices five times and tortoises offer sacrifices six times.
Every year on the 24th day of the 11th lunar month, every household fries food and the aroma of meat fills the air. This year’s small mountain village is no exception, except for the house of the Hang family, which has moved out and remains quiet.
Now the people in the village could no longer hold back and went to Wang Xiuli's house to inquire about the news: "Where did the Hang family go to make their fortune?"
